HEFE produces classic banana and clove notes for traditional Hefeweizen
Contributes to a smooth body, persistent haze, and high drinkability
Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required
Ferment between 59-77°F
Pressure-Ready Performs great under pressure up to 12 PSI
HEFE is a top-fermenting dry yeast, crafted specifically for wheat beers. It produces the hallmark banana and clove aromas expected in traditional Hefeweizen styles, with a clean, smooth finish and excellent drinkability. HEFE produces bright, refreshing wheat beers with pronounced banana notes (isoamyl acetate) at the higher end of its temperature range. Subtle clove character (4-vinyl guaiacol) at the lower end. Expect a smooth body and a persistent, signature haze. For brewers using pressure-capable fermenters, HEFE performs great up to 12 PSI, allowing warmer, faster fermentations while dialing back its classic banana and clove expression for a noticeably cleaner profile.
Fermentation Temperature: 59-77°F (15-25°C), optimal range 64-72°F (18-22°C)
Attenuation: 80–91%
Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 10% ABV
Flocculation: Low
Direct Pitch: No rehydration needed
Reliable & Consistent: Every batch undergoes PCR testing for quality control
High Cell Count: 15g per sachet (over 36% more than standard 11g dry yeast packs)
Dosage:
One sachet is enough to treat a 5–6 gallon batch. When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 2–3 grams per gallon of wort. We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly.
Like all CellarScience yeasts, HEFE offers professional-grade performance for both homebrewers and craft brewers, delivering exceptional quality at an unbeatable value.

Kieselsol removes proteins and metallic compounds for clear, polished wine and cider. Achieve superior clarity by using Kieselsol alongside Chitosan for optimal results. Simply add to degassed wine or uncarbonated cider for a crystal-clear finish. Kieselsol is a negatively charged fining agent useful in removing proteins and some metallic compounds. Add Kieselsol to degassed wine or uncarbonated cider to clarify. For best results, always use Kieselsol in conjunction with Chitosan. Directions: Gently stir Kieselsol into fully degassed wine or alco-base at the rate of 1/4 oz per 5-6 gallons Make sure that it is fully degassed. If not, Kieselsol may not clear the wine.
Stir for 20 - 30 seconds to make sure Kieselsol is fully dissolved and leave liquid to fully clear Clearing can take 1 - 2 days, so please allow 12-48 hours to clear fully For best results, use in conjunction with Chitosan or liquid gelatin. Bench trials are recommended. Kieselsol (30%) Storage: Refrigeration is not required. Do not freeze. Contains: Water, 30% Silica solution
Prevent volatile acidity in fermentation before it happens
Add at first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity
Avoid a malolactic fermentation (MLF) in White Wines
Use as an insurance policy during barrel aging of Red Wines to reduce the risk of volatile acidity
CellarScience Killazyme is a lysozyme that is used to control and inhibit gram-positive lactic acid producing bacteria including Oenoccoccus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus. This is a tool winemakers can use throughout the winemaking process to limit bacteria contamination and the production of volatile acidity. Killazyme does not affect gram-negative Acetic Acid bacteria nor yeast.
Don’t Use Killazyme If You Are Coinoculating Yeast and ML
When performing a “secondary” malolactic fermentation (MLF) we want lactic acid Bacteria to convert the harsher malic acid into lactic acid. Mostly MLF fermentations are done sequentially with the sugar fermentation being completed first followed by the MLF fermentation second. If you are doing a co-inoculation of yeast and lactic acid bacteria during the primary ferment, do not use Killazyme.
Use Killazyme to Prevent Volatile Acidity in Fermentation
Killazyme can be added at the start of fermentation to limit lactic acid bacteria before it happens. Under certain situations lactic acid can use sugar or citric acid which it converts into acetic acid and volatile acidity.
Killazyme is effectively used at the start of fermentation when you know or suspect a slow to start fermentation. This might be a result of a cold soak or those ferments relying on native yeast. Once your yeast starts to rip, the potential action of lactic acid bacteria is greatly suppressed and the need for Killazyme is reduced.
At the back end of fermentation, slow, struggling fermentations caused by various reasons, such as temperature or high sugar, can cause bacteria to consume sugar and citric to produce acetic acid and volatile acidity. Additionally, if lactic acid bacteria fully converts the available malic acid the bacteria can pivot to sugar and citric product volatile acidity. In a problem ferment where the yeast are already struggling, volatile acidity acts as a double whammy suppressing yeast activity even further. If you suspect a problem finish, based on past experience or current conditions, Killazyme is a great tool to add at the start of fermentation
Use Killazyme at First Signs of Problem Finish
Killazyme can also be added at the first signs of a problematic ferment to help limit the production of volatile acidity. This reactive addition requires a heavier dosage than a preemptive addition as there is most likely volatile acidity already present.
Use Killazyme to Avoid MLF in White Wines
When fresh, crisp white wines are desired, Killazyme can be added at the start of a white wine fermentation, or at any point in tank or barrel, to block lactic acid activity and prevent MLF. We still always recommend a sterile filtration for commercial whites before bottling to prevent a later MLF in the bottle. . Killazyme is also great if you are going to be blending whites where one white went through and MLF and the other white did not.
Barrel Storage Protection of Reds
After MLF is complete and you storing wines in barrel Killazyme is a great insurance policy to reduce the risk of volatile acidity.
Use:
To Delay Malolactic Fermentation: Red Wine - add to grapes at 100 - 200 ppm, or 0.38 - 0.76 grams per gallon. White Wine - Add to must at 200 - 300 ppm, or 0.76 - 1.14 grams per gallon.
To Block Malolactic Fermentation: White Wine - Add to must or wine at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
Stabilizing Wine After MLF is Complete: Add to barrel during storage at 250 - 500 ppm, or 0.95 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
When Blending Partial and Complete MLF Wines: Add immediately after blending at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon, to reduce the risk of further malolactic fermentation (MLF). Within several days any lactic should expire.
For Sluggish or Stuck Yeast Fermentation: Red Wine - Add at 150 - 400 ppm, or 0.57 - 1.52 grams per gallon. White Wine - add at 300 - 500 ppm, or 1.14 - 1.90 grams per gallon.
You can make a 10% solution of Killazyme in water (100 grams per liter of water). However, we find the easiest method is to add the desired dry weight of Killazyme in 5x its weight of warm (tepid) water. Mix for one minute, allow this mixture to stand for 45 minutes and add to must, juice or wine while mixing well. Allow 24 - 48 hours for reaction to complete.
A classic yeast strain for Kölsch & Altbier beer styles. A neutral ester profile allows the beer to better express noble hops & malt character. Finishes dry with low levels of diacetyl.
Every batch is PCR tested to ensure quality.
Dosage:
Use at a rate of 50-95 grams per barrel, depending on wort temperature and gravity.
Direct Pitch or Rehydrate:
KÖLSCH yeast is designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no oxygenation required in the initial fermentation. Our aerobic growth process makes this possible by creating dry yeast with high viability and high sterol levels. KÖLSCH yeast is pre-loaded with essential nutrients to ensure a successful, complete fermentation. While not required, some brewers prefer to rehydrate yeast. To hydrate yeast, first, sanitize the yeast brick and scissors. Use 10 grams of sterilized tap water between 85-95°F (29-35°C) mixed with 0.25 grams of FermStart per gram of yeast. Sprinkle yeast on the water. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 20 minutes, then swirl. Use small amounts of wort to adjust to within 10°F (6°C) of wort temperature before pitching. Ferment between 60-73°F (16-23°C).
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 60-73°F

Adds mouthfeel and body to wines, seltzers, ciders, etc.
Adds perceived sweetness without the concerns of adding residual sugar
Helps lock in color by keeping anthocyanins in suspension in red wines
Reduces the formation of tartrate crystals in white wine
Makes bubbles in sparkling wine rise slower enhancing the appearance
LiquiBody by CellarScience is a specialized, pre-liquefied Gum Arabic preparation that adds body and perceived sweetness while stabilizing color and smoothing tannic astringency. LiquiBody is made from high molecular weight polysaccharides which adds the perception of sweetness without having to stabilize residual sugar in your wine. The ability to add body and a little perceived sweetness has many applications.
LiquiBody helps keep anthocyanin color compounds in solution, preventing them from precipitating out in the bottle. It is also particularly useful to help keep tartrates in solution when cold stabilization of white wine is not possible.
Popular Uses
LiquiBody works really well in hard seltzers to add body and a slight sweetness. LiquiBody is added to sparkling wines to improve mouthfeel while increasing the appearance and fineness of the bubbles. Add perceived sweetness to any wine in your lineup to appeal to a larger portion of the population.
Filtering
Add after rough filtration is finished and before or after sterile filtration. LiquiBody is suitable for use with a sterile membrane filter if your wine is very clean and you have prefiltered. If your wine is not prefiltered, and you already suspect you may have issues with sterile filtration, do not use LiquiBody.
Dosage:
LiquiBody is stabilized with potassium bisulfite which will add less than 1 ppm of SO2 into your final wine.
Use:
Add 0.75 to 5 mL per gallon. Perform bench trials to determine optimal usage or start with a dosage of 2 mL per gallon and adjust as needed on future batches. Works best at a temperature range between 50-68ºF and a pH of 4 to 5.5.
Additional Notes:
Once opened, partial bottles of LiquiBody should be refrigerated and used within 30 days. If a container is left open for longer than the suggested use, you can add 1000 ppm of SO2 to extend its life span.
Autolyzing, quick release of polysaccarides such as mannoproteins Top choice for sur lie aging Ability to ferment cold for clean flavor with emphasis on mouthfeel and toastiness of sur lie aging When fermented warmer exoctic tropical flavors shine Frequently used to make luscious Chardonnays and similar white wines Luscious Chardonnays with creamy mouthfeel and deep complexity... if that is your end point, LUSCIOUS is your starting point. LUSCIOUS can be fermented at different temps depending on your style preference. Ferment it cooler, it can handle it, and put the emphasis on the creaminess and the toasted champagne-like complexity of sur lie ageing. Or crank it up a bit warmer and add in some more tropical notes, your choice. However the magic of LUSCIOUS really happens after fermentation when this yeast goes naturally goes nuclear, implodes and breaks open its cell walls, during a process called autolysis. Polysaccharides such as mannoproteins are released into the wine... and man, it's all about those mannoproteins creating that rich, creamy mouthfeel that so many Chardonnay drinkers seek out. The silky richness is emphasized even futher by sur lie aging, aging on clean lees for a period of time, in either tank or barrel. Being a low producer of SO2 it is naturally great candiate for later malo-lactic fermentations. Now that we have painted a picture try putting this marketing wizardry on your next label "The 10-40w viscosity of this wine is due to it being loaded with mannoproteins from the guts of exploded yeast cells". Maybe leave us out of the wine marketing department but we do know a winning yeast when we taste it. #1 for this style of Chardonnay but also a top choice for Viognier and other whites. Optimal Fermentation Temp: 55–68°F Start Time: Average Alcohol Tolerance: 14%+ Nitrogen Demand: Average YAN Requirement @ 23 Brix: 245 ppm Production of volatile acidity: Average Production of SO2: Low Cap/Foaming: Low Ease to Ferment with MLF: Good Lees Aging: Best Choice Proper yeast hydration helps ensure a healthy fermentation. For every gram of yeast, mix .25 g of FermStart yeast nutrient with 25 ml of sterilized tap water between 104–106°F/40–41°C. When water reaches 104°F/40°C, sprinkle yeast into water and stir gently. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 15 minutes and then stir again. For every gram of yeast used add 25 ml of clean must to the yeast slurry and let stand 15–20 minutes. If necessary, use additional must to adjust yeast slurry to within 18°F of must temp before pitching. For a complete nutrient schedule sufficient for most fermentations, add 1.5 g of FermFed DAP Free per gallon of must at the first sign of fermentation and 1 g of FermFed per gallon of must after 1/3 sugar depletion.

MAISON is a Belgian yeast strain designed for a wide range of Belgian-style beers including Belgian Blondes, Witbiers, Dubbels, Tripels, and Quads
Produces classic fruit esters alongside subtle clove and spice phenolics, achieving the perfect balance of fruit and spice for authentic Belgian character
Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required
Ferment between 64-75°F
MAISON is your go-to Belgian yeast strain, crafted for a wide range of Belgian-style beers including Belgian Blondes, Witbiers, Dubbels, Tripels, and Quads. MAISON ferments effectively across a broad temperature range, producing an expressive yet refined balance of esters and phenols typical of classic Belgian fermentations.
At higher temperatures (around 75°F / 24°C), expect robust flavor development, featuring moderately sweet malt supported by bright fruit esters such as ethyl hexanoate (pear, apple) and isoamyl acetate (banana). These are complemented by gentle clove-like phenols (4-vinyl guaiacol) and subtle notes of white pepper and coriander seed, creating a complex yet clean Belgian profile.
At lower temperatures (around 64°F / 18°C), MAISON presents these same characteristics with greater restraint—producing a more nuanced and elegant fermentation signature. The fruit esters become softer and more floral, while phenolic spice is dialed back, allowing malt sweetness and smoothness to shine through.
Flavor Profile: Moderately sweet malt with notes of pear, soft apple, banana, clove, white pepper, and a touch of toasted-bread malt character.
Primary Compounds: Balanced production of ethyl hexanoate and isoamyl acetate, with light phenolic expression from 4-vinyl guaiacol for a classic Belgian balance of fruit and spice.

NE HAZY is a low-flocculating, biotransformative yeast designed for NE-style hazy beers
Enhances mouthfeel, turbidity, and hop aroma, creating a juicy, pillowy body and stable haze perfect for Hazy IPAs and juicy doubles
Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required
Ferment between 62-75°F
NE HAZY – The Yeast for Hazy, Juicy Beers
NE HAZY is our specialized ale yeast for New England style (NE) hazy beers. If you’re looking to craft a juicy, flavor-packed brew with a lasting, stable haze, this strain has you covered.
This low-flocculating, biotransformative strain enhances mouthfeel and turbidity through its interaction with glycoproteins and hop compounds, making it ideal for NEIPAs, Hazy IPAs, Pale Ales, and Juicy Doubles. During fermentation, it releases mannoproteins, a class of glycoproteins from its cell walls that create a soft, pillowy body while reinforcing haze stability.
NE HAZY actively participates in biotransformation, modifying hop-derived polyphenols and interacting with protein-rich compounds from wheat and oats. This process forms stable protein-polyphenol complexes that lock haze into suspension and intensify the beer’s juicy, full-bodied character. The result is an exceptionally stable haze, smooth-drinking beer with elevated mouthfeel, hop saturation, and tropical fruit expression.
It ferments cleanly across a wide temperature range (62–75°F / 17–24°C) and is pressure-tolerant up to 12 PSI, making it highly versatile for a variety of brewhouse setups.
Amplifies Hop Aroma & Flavor: Boosts tropical and citrus notes for NE-style juiciness
Enhances Juicy Character: Transforms hop precursors into free thiols like grapefruit, passionfruit, guava, pineapple, peach, apricot, tangerine, and lime
Boosts Haze Stability: Builds durable haze through glycoprotein and polyphenol interactions
Flexible Fermentation: Performs across 62–75°F (17–24°C); pressure-tolerant to 12 PSI
Robust & Reliable: Medium-low flocculation, consistent haze retention
Attenuation: ~75–80%
Alcohol Tolerance: 12% ABV
Direct Pitch: No rehydration needed
Quality Control: Every batch PCR-verified for purity and consistency
High Cell Count: 15 g per sachet — over 36% more than standard 11 g dry yeast packs
Dosage
One sachet treats 5–6 gal (19–23 L). For larger batches, use 2–3 g/gal (0.5–0.8 g/L). Round up to the next full sachet rather than measuring precisely.
Like all CellarScience yeasts, NE HAZY delivers professional-grade performance for both homebrewers and craft brewers producing the saturated, juicy haze that defines the modern New England IPA.

The ideal yeast for producing a very neutral, clean base for hard seltzers, canned cocktails, further distillation, etc.
Works with malt or sugar fermentations
Includes nutrients and pH buffers to keep fermentation humming to finish
Able to handle high levels of ethanol and osmotic pressure
Ferments clean up to 80°F
Our motto is to Empower Your Creative Vision. Origin is a unique style of yeast used to create a neutral alcoholic base that acts as the Origin upon which you layer other flavors. Perfect for Hard Seltzers, Canned Cocktails, and whatever else you can dream up. Also great for neutral washes designed for distillation and tough to ferment honey-based mead fermentations.
Works on both sugar, honey, and malt-based fermentations. The secret sauce is a very neutral, high alcohol tolerant yeast combined with nutrients and pH buffers. The non-urea-based nutrients help the yeast in simple sugar mediums naturally low in nutrients. pH buffers ensure a high enough pH to allow the yeast to run to completion in even the toughest of situations. The yeast strain used in Origin is a very low producer of H2S and fruity esters resulting in a clean final product. Origin stays clean at higher fermentation temperatures up to 80°F.
Origin could technically be called a Turbo Yeast being packed with nutrients. However, we don't like that association as many turbo Yeasts are not selected and assembled for quality and flavor but rather price and speed. Turbo Yeasts also do not include pH buffers.
Origin will work with all commonly used sugars, including sucrose, dextrose, and liquid invert sugar. When fermenting wort from malted barley, use our Brutzyme Glucoamylase Enzyme to break down α-1,4 and α-1,6 glycosidic linkages of starch, dextrins, and oligosaccharides for a drier, more fully attenuated final product. Pilot batches should always be performed to find the optimum final product for your further vision.
Directions:
Add 10 to 20 g per gal (2.5 to 5 g per liter) directly into your fermentation with no hydration required. Ferment between 65 to 80°F (18-27°C). We recommend starting with a dosage of 15 g per gal (4 g per liter) and adjusting as desired in future batches.
Easily added to mash water to reduce oxidation in finished beer
Scavenges oxygen in mash water
Reduces Lipoxygenase (Lox) activity in malt which reduces trans-2-nonenal stale/cardboard flavors in beer
Reduces hot side aeration
Results in beer with fresher flavor and longer shelf life
Oxblox 3D is a specially formulated blend of gallotannins, ascorbic acid, and metabisulphite that is added to your strike water right before mash-in. It dissolves easily and is extremely useful to reduce oxidation during the mashing process. Through multiple actions, it reduces dissolved oxygen levels and helps inhibit the lipoxygenase enzyme found in malt that is infamous for causing downstream wet paper / cardboard flavors attributed by the (E)-2-nonenal compound. Oxblox 3D has minimal impact on pH but may lower pH levels by 0.2-0.4 in both the mash and the finished beer.
You may not always notice stale flavor compounds in beer when present, especially at low levels. But when removed, the beer can smell and taste fresher. Beer treated with Oxblox also has an enhanced shelf life, staying fresher for longer.
Overall, Oxblox 3D is a low cost, easy-to-use addition to help you brew better tasting beer that lasts longer in keg, can, or bottle.
Use:
Mix 0.2 to 0.4 g per gal (0.05 to 0.1 g per liter) into your strike water directly before dough-in. We recommend starting with a dosage of 0.3 g per gallon of strike water (0.08 g per liter of strike water) and adjust as desired in future batches.
Developed specifically for bottle conditioning. PRIME has a high alcohol tolerance, neutral flavor, ferments quickly, and has excellent flocculation to form a compact sediment at the bottom of the bottle, keg, or barrel. Does not ferment maltotriose so will not dry your beer out further and will only ferment the sugar you add.
Every batch is PCR tested to ensure quality.
Dosage:
Use at a rate of .38 grams per gallon or 1 gram per liter.
Directions:
Mix the desired amount of Dextrose in 5x its weight of water, boil, cool to approximately room temperature, and mix the sugar solution into your beer.
Direct Pitch or Rehydrate:
To hydrate yeast, first, sanitize yeast brick and scissors. Use 10 grams of sterilized tap water, between 85-95°F (29-35°C), per gram of yeast. Sprinkle yeast onto the water. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 20 minutes and then swirl. Use small amounts of beer to adjust to within 10°F (6°C) of beer temp. Mix yeast slurry into beer. Allow carbonation to develop for two weeks between 60-78°F (16-26°C) before testing for adequate carbonation.

Emphasizes red berry fruit flavors High color extraction Makes wines that do not require extended aging Med-High nutrient need Top choice for Zinfandel, Sangiovese, Pinot, Merlot Our most popular red yeast is a perfect choice for Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Sangiovese, Merlot and other reds where you want to emphasize red fruit flavors. When compared with BIG RED or PURPLE, RED is less about structure and body and more about fruit. Fantastic by itself if you plan to blend separately fermented lots back together. RED is a great choice to contribute red berry flavor. Also known to help produce intense color. Also a great choice for Cabernet, Syrah and other traditinoal big red varietals where you would like to emphasize fruit over structure and body. Because RED ferments cleaner than most yeast at high temperatures, it is the perfect choice if you are fermenting in a warm environment and do not have temperature control. It does not produce much SO2 so it is a great choice for easier ML fermentations Start Time: Average Alcohol tolerance: 16% Nitrogen Demand: Med Yan Requirement @ 23 Brix: 250ppm Production of volatile acidity: low Production of SO2: Low Ease to Ferment with MLF: Good Yeast Type: Cerevisiae Killer Factor: Neutral Malic Acid Consumption: Average Optimal Fermentation Temp: 65–85°F Proper yeast hydration helps ensure a healthy fermentation.

Enhances fruit and chocolate-like aromas in red wines
Helps stabilize color
Our selected blend of SIY's, Ellagic Tannins, and a touch of Gum Arabic
Added at the end of fermentation or the beginning of aging
Red Wonder was developed to add fruit and chocolate flavor to red wine. It brings the body and richness of sur lie aging with the amazing impact of ellagic finishing tannins. The ellagic tannins in this blend were selected for their ability to impart chocolate flavors into the wine.
Red Wonder is a blend of specially inactivated yeast (SIY), elected ellagic tannins, and a little bit of LiquiBody Gum Arabic. In addition to body and flavor this product helps reduce the need for SO2 and also helps to lock in color.
You certainly could select an SIY, like our CellarScience Easy Sur Lie and then trial them with different ellagic tannins along with LiquiBody. But we've worked in small wineries and we know you are busy, so we've done that trialing for you and selected the blend that most often turned out really exceptional red wines.
Directions:
Use at the rate of 0.4 to 1.5 g per gallon of wine. Rehydrate in warm water or wine for 30 minutes and then stir directly into the tank or barrel. Once fully mixed it doesn't need any further stirring. We recommend starting with dosage of 1 g per gal (0.25 g per liter) and adjusting on further batches as needed.

Fast-Acting Clarifier: SilaFine quickly creates crystal-clear beer by removing yeast and haze-forming particles, delivering high-quality results in as little as 24 hours.
Preserves Beer Foam: Unlike other fining agents, SilaFine targets only haze-forming particles and yeast, leaving foam-active proteins intact, ensuring a great beer head in every pour.
Versatile Application: Effective both in finished beer and during the whirlpool stage, SilaFine offers flexibility for brewers, with different dosing options for quicker, compact sedimentation.
Vegan-Friendly & Purity Compliant: Made from pure, natural silica sol, SilaFine is vegan-friendly and complies with the Reinheitsgebot German beer purity law.
SilaFine is an easy-to-use, vegan friendly fining agent that quickly creates crystal clear beer by removing yeast and haze-forming particles. This highly effective clarifier will eliminate or greatly reduce the need for filtration without affecting flavor. SilaFine is a unique, negatively charged silica sol fining agent that binds with positively charged haze active proteins and polyphenols to create an electrostatic net that also drags down yeast cells. SilaFine does not target foam active head forming proteins, so the beer foam in glass is unaffected.
Use:
Add 10ml or 1 tbsp per 5 gallons of finished beer. Gently rouse the beer to fully disperse the clarifier. SilaFine will work to drop out yeast at fermentation temperatures, but for full effectiveness on haze-inducing particles, we recommend adding it to beer that has been chilled below 39°F. If the beer has not cleared after 24 hours, a second dose can be added. SilaFine should be stored cool, but do not freeze.
Unitanks & Brites:
If you are using a brite tank, SilaFine is best added to the beer stream inline when pumping from fermenter to brite. If you are using a Unitank and no brite tank, add to the top of the Unitank while rousing with CO2 for 5-10 minutes from the bottom. Or you can use a pump loop to recirculate the beer in a Unitank, instead of rousing with CO2. If added at ideal temperatures below 39°F, and well dispersed into the tank, clarification can take as little 8-12 hours. Otherwise clarification may take up to 48 hours. We advise against using more than the recommended amount, as overdosing can actually increase haze temporarily and cause a longer settling period.
Dosage Rate in Whirlpool:
SilaFine can also be used in the whirlpool at a rate of 0.5-1ml per gallon to achieve a quicker and more compact sedimentation in the kettle.
Additional Notes:
SilaFine is based on a special selection of commercial grade amorphous silicon dioxide, also known as silica sol, at a concentration of 30%. Silica sol is known by a few names in brewing including colloidal silica, acidified silicates, silicon dioxide, and silicic acid. Unlike some other silica sols, SilaFine is not treated with aluminum oxide. SilaFine is a pure mineral and complies with Reinheitsgebot German beer purity law. Do not freeze. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
The recommended shelf life is 12 months from the date the package is opened.

High-Gravity Optimized: Precisely calibrated for 18–20% ABV sugar-wash fermentations.
Ultra-Clean Finish: Eliminates "turbo funk" by actively suppressing fusels, sulfur, and solvent off-flavors.
Advanced Nutrient System: Dual-phase nitrogen, fortified minerals, and vitamins protect yeast under extreme ethanol stress.
Highly Versatile Base: Produces a completely neutral alcohol perfect for 20% cocktails or diluted hard seltzers.
Broad Compatibility: Performs consistently with a wide range of distiller’s and specialty yeast strains.
Slayer 800 is precisely calibrated for sugar-wash fermentations targeting 18 to 20% ABV. Within this window, the nutrient ratio is tuned to balance nitrogen availability, osmotic stress, and yeast health. Fermenting a wash to 20% ABV demands precision, not brute force. At this level, osmotic pressure, ethanol toxicity, and nutrient exhaustion push yeast to their limits. Conventional “turbo” nutrients rely on aggressive nitrogen overloads that drive speed at the cost of flavor, producing the unmistakable turbo funk familiar to high-gravity brewers. Slayer 800 was engineered to defeat that enabling rapid, stable, and neutral fermentations that finish strong, clean, and predictable.
Every component in Slayer 800 serves a biochemical purpose. Its dual-phase nitrogen system combines rapid inorganic nitrogen for early growth with a measured organic fraction that sustains amino-acid synthesis deep into fermentation. This balanced loadout prevents nutrient collapse while minimizing fusel and sulfur formation.
A mineral-based buffering system moderates acidification and preserves yeast metabolic efficiency. Supported by bioavailable zinc, magnesium, and an optimized vitamin complex, Slayer 800 reinforces cell-wall integrity and alcohol-dehydrogenase activity, the critical pathways that allow yeast to survive and thrive at extreme gravities. The result is a wash that ferments completely and cleanly, without the off-flavors or volatility typical of over-stimulated turbo washes.
The purity of a Slayer 800 fermentation produces a remarkably neutral alcohol base suitable for diverse applications. It can serve directly as a 20% cocktail base for spirit-free cocktails or be diluted into a lower-strength seltzer base without introducing residual yeast or flavor carryover. The result is a clean, versatile foundation for both commercial and craft beverage creation.
Compatible with a wide range of distiller’s and specialty yeast strains, Slayer 800 delivers complete, stable fermentations from small-batch runs to large-scale production. Its balanced nutrient profile supports consistent attenuation and clean finishes across yeast types, eliminating the variability that plagues generic turbo formulas.

Unique amino acid blend activates Ehrlich pathway causing beer and wine yeast to produce tropical flavors
Contributes complexity to beer styles like Hazys where tropical flavors are desired. Pairs perfectly with CellarScience HAZY Yeast
Contributes tropical complexity to Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier wines when used in conjunction with CellarScience CITRUS Wine Yeast
Enhance tropical flavors in your beer or wine with CellarScience Tropic Thunder. By changing the amino acid mix you feed your yeast you can influence the final flavors yeast produce. To understand why, we have to first explain the Ehrlich pathway which was discovered over 100 years ago by German Biochemist Felix Ehrlich. Yeast absorbs and breaks down a specific set of amino acids very slowly over the course of fermentation. The yeast cells incorporate the amino group into their cell structure, leaving an alpha-keto acid. This acid is turned into fusel alcohol by the yeast and then returned back out into the wort. This production of fusel alcohols via the breakdown of specific amino acids is called the Ehrlich Pathway.
For Beer
Fusel alcohol may scare you as a brewer... we get it, you are trained to avoid these! But certain fusel alcohols actually have a really positive effect on the final beer flavor. The idea behind CellarScience Tropic Thunder is we have selected specific amino acids that when fed to your yeast will result in the production of a small amount of fusel alcohols that contribute to the tropical flavors of mango, pineapple, and coconut. Tropic Thunder nutrient is often used to help create complexity in hazy IPA, but feel free to use it in any style where tropical flavors would be welcome—you are only limited by your imagination! When used in beer, Tropic Thunder can replace your typical yeast nutrient as it is itself an organic, DAP-free nutrient. If you typically use a complex nutrient that includes DAP, you can continue to add it separately as normal.
For Wine
Tropic Thunder is perfect for Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier and other select styles where tropical fruit flavors are part of your vision. In addition to selecting a thiol releasing yeast strain such as CellarScience CITRUS, Tropic Thunder can help bring complimentary tropical fusel flavors via the Ehrlich pathway. As a part of the overall mix, along with thiols and terpenes, the complexity of Sauvignon Blanc or Viognier is enhanced. Tropic Thunder can also be used in select Chardonnays or any white wines where tropical mango and pineapple flavors are desired. When added at the rate of 0.6 to 2 grams per gallon, Tropic Thunder contributes 3 to 12 ppm of YAN. When using CellarScience FermFed or FermFed DAP Free nutrient blends to power your fermentation, we recommend adding Tropic Thunder on top of these additions.
Use:
For beer or white wine add 0.6 to 2 gram per gallon (0.15 to 0.5 grams per liter) directly into the fermenter at the start of fermentation. Perform bench trials to determine optimal usage or start with a dosage of 1.2 g per gal (0.3 g per liter) and adjust as needed on future batches.

Our top choice for Seltzers — highly efficient at metabolizing simple sugars with minimal off-flavors (low fusel/sulfur)
Amazing house strain – for neutral-profile ales
VELO delivers – rapid fermentation while maintaining a clean, neutral profile
Doesn’t require temperature control - Loves to ferment Hot
Ferment between 60-94°F
Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required
Amazing as a House Strain
VELO is a high-performance ale yeast selected for speed, flavor neutrality, and wide temperature tolerance. In internal sensory comparisons, VELO’s ester suppression and clean finish exceeded CellarScience CALI, while offering faster kinetics and a wide operating range that, within reason, can substantially reduce the need for temperature control. We’ve found it to be a dependable house strain across styles, especially for hop-forward ales. delivering clean results quickly while staying remarkably forgiving across real-world fermentation conditions
Why It Works in Seltzers
For hard seltzer production, VELO excels thanks to highly efficient metabolism of simple sugars (“mono- and disaccharides”) with low fusel and sulfur byproducts when supported by a complete nutrient regimen. When developing our Seltzer nutrient Dynamo 800 we tried many yeasts and Velo was consistently the best. From there we tweaked the formulation specifically for Velo with over 60 fermentations. Across broader sensory feedback beyond internal bench work, VELO consistently presented as noticeably cleaner than several common industry benchmarks, delivering a true neutral, blank-canvas base that stays out of the way of your seltzer flavor additions.
Lagers Fermented at Warmer Temperatures (Sometimes called pseudo-lagers)
VELO excels in this role by delivering a clean, lager-like profile at ale fermentation temperatures. Its wide operating range (60–94°F / 16–34°C), fast kinetics, and low ester/phenol expression let you run lager-style recipes in the mid-60s to low-70s °F without temperature control. When you ferment under pressure (up to 12 PSI), you can push these lager-like beers toward the upper end of VELO’s range right up to 94°F while still maintaining a neutral, crisp finish. High attenuation and medium–high flocculation help the beer finish dry and drop clear quickly, making VELO an amazing house strain for clean, lager-like beers on an ale timeline.
Technical Attributes
Neutral & Clean: Ester/phenol expression held very low; as clean or cleaner than CellarScience CALI in sensory comparisons.
Fast Fermentation: Wraps primary quickly, reducing tank residency and tightening production schedules.
Wide Temp Range: Performs cleanly from 60–94 °F (16–34 °C) with minimal off-flavors—useful where tight temperature control isn’t feasible.

VOSS is a kveik yeast strain that ferments quickly at higher temperatures with superb flocculation A traditional farmhouse yeast from Voss, Norway that produces a clean flavor profile with hints of orange peel & citrus Designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no pre-oxygenation before pitching required Ferment between 68-104°F CellarScience offers high-quality yeast that is easy to use, consistent, and available at a tremendous value Traditional farmhouse yeast from Voss, Norway. This kveik yeast strain ferments quickly at higher temperatures with superb flocculation. Produces a clean flavor profile with hints of orange peel & citrus. Every batch is PCR tested to ensure quality. Dosage: One sachet is enough to treat a 5–6 gallon batch. When calculating for larger batches, use at a rate of 2–3 grams per gallon of wort. We recommend rounding up by one full sachet rather than measuring out the yeast exactly. Direct Pitch or Rehydrate: VOSS yeast is designed to be sprinkled directly onto the surface of your wort with no oxygenation required in the initial fermentation. Our aerobic growth process makes this possible by creating dry yeast with high viability and high sterol levels. VOSS yeast is pre-loaded with essential nutrients to ensure a successful, complete fermentation. While not required, some brewers prefer to rehydrate yeast. To hydrate yeast, first, sanitize the yeast brick and scissors. Use 10 grams of sterilized tap water between 85-95°F (29-35°C) mixed with 0.25 grams of FermStart per gram of yeast. Sprinkle yeast on the water. Allow the slurry to stand undisturbed for 20 minutes, then swirl. Use small amounts of wort to adjust to within 10°F (6°C) of wort temperature before pitching. Ferment between 68-104°F (20-40°C). Optimum Fermentation Temp: 68-104°F Flocculation: Medium-High Alochol Tolerance: 16% ABV (LalBrew® Voss 12%) Attenuation: 75-80% Similar Strains: WLP520, OYL061 Gluten-free CellarScience Yeast: For years liquid yeast has been sold as the higher quality option but times are changing. Yes, 20 years ago dry yeast was made by bread yeast producers and the quality was not as good as liquid yeast. CellarScience is helping to flip that script with a full lineup of high-quality dry yeasts. Cell count and viability is usually higher than commercial liquid yeast pitches, which vary from pouch to pouch and don't ship well. CellarScience yeast can be pitched directly in most batches of wort, offering significant time savings. Yeast that is quick and easy to use, high quality, and available at a reasonable cost adds up to a tremendous value. Quality yeast that doesn't "break the brink". CellarScience Nutrients: For high gravity ferments consider rehydrating yeast with CellarScience FermStart yeast hydration nutrient. For high gravity or low nutrient wort, feed your fermentation with CellarScience FermFed DAP Free complex yeast nutrient mix.

Rhizomes are now in stock and orders are being fulfilled. If you haven't ordered your rhizomes yet, this is your last chance till next season!
9.5-11.5% AA - Grows well in all climates. Susceptible to Downy Mildew.
The aroma/flavor is definitely American in nature with pungent aromas and pronounced flavor. Similar to, and blends well with Cascade, but without the grapefruit flavors of Cascade. Great higher alpha bittering hop.
Rhizomes should be planted immediately for best results. If your area is still experiencing frost then you can plant them in a planter indoors until it is safe to transplant outside. The first years crop will generally be smaller than subsequent years. Since these are live plants, we cannot guarantee they will grow, so we recommend buying two of each type to help ensure their success.
Shipping Restrictions:
Due to agricultural restrictions, we can only ship rhizomes to addresses that are in the United States, excepting Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, and the counties of Bonner and Kootenai in Idaho. Unfortunately, we cannot ship these to international locations including APO/FPO addresses.
Maximize Finished Yield: Reduces beer loss and waste by replacing bulky hop pellets with a highly concentrated liquid extract.
Intense Hop Aromatics: Delivers variety-specific, "survivable" hop compounds for a powerful aromatic boost in every batch.

Increased aroma
Less storage space needed
High concentrations of survivable compounds
Reduction of waste
How to Brew with HyperBoost?
HyperBoost® is designed to easily pour in your fermenter as a dry hop addition, adding an intense saturation of hop flavor to your finished beer. Most brewers choose to use HyperBoost during active fermentation, but it can also be added to the whirlpool. Using HyperBoost in place of traditional pellets can increase finished beer yield.
Kettle: HyperBoost is not intended for kettle additions. For early kettle and bittering additions, we recommend pellets or CO2 extract. DynaBoost® carries variety-specific oil and alpha acid content to the kettle and can be used as a late kettle addition.
Post-Boil / Whirlpool: For whirlpool use, brewers can replace up to 100% of pellets with HyperBoost. We suggest replacing T-90 pellet additions in the whirlpool at a rate of 50:1 by weight (20 g of HyperBoost to replace 1 kg T-90). Your brewery might choose to use more or less depending on beer style or overall goal.
Fermentation: HyperBoost can be used as an active or post-fermentation hop addition. Incorporate HyperBoost anywhere in the process you would typically use pellets.
Dry Hopping: For dry hop additions, YCH recommends using HyperBoost for 25-50% of the addition and adding T-90 or Cryo® pellets for the remainder of the hop charge. As a dry hop, we suggest starting with a replacement rate of 100:1 HyperBoost to T-90 pellets by weight (10 g HyperBoost in place of 1 kg T-90) to 125:1 (8 g HyperBoost in place of 1 kg T-90).
HyperBoost® is a registered trademark owned by Yakima Chief Hops, LLC.
Dual purpose hops popularly used in American styles including Pale Ales and West Coast IPAs
Aroma Profile: Floral, Lemon, Orange, Tropical, Woody
Alpha Acids: 15.0 – 22.0%
Cryo Hop® Hop Pellets
Higher AA and nearly twice the resin content of traditional T-90 hop pellets
Increase yield by reducing vegetal matter in your brewhouse and fermenter
Cryo Hops® provide brewers with the ability to get gigantic hop character while reducing astringent and unpleasant vegetal flavors. With a substantially higher oil and resin content, LupuLN2 powder offers up all the flavor and aroma of a heavily hopped beer, but with a significanly reduced grassy character. Additionally, the lower dosage rate of the concentrated powder reduces the volume of trub and therefore, kettle loss. Using Cryo Hops® you will net more beer that is clearer!
